Sell Us Your Car

 

Buying and selling a car may seem daunting, but working with a dealership can significantly minimize the load. At Stan McNabb Chevrolet, we’re happy to make you an offer even if you decide not to buy your next car through us.

Benefits of Selling Your Car to a Dealership

Selling your car to a dealership can simplify the sale process. Here are some of the benefits to consider:

  • A more streamlined process: When you sell to a dealership, a lot of the admin is taken care of on your behalf. You also don’t have to go through the motions of advertising your car or meeting up with potential buyers. You simply inform the dealership of your intention to sell, take up their offer, and drop off your car along with the relevant documentation. The dealership will take care of the change of ownership and settle any remaining finance.
  • An as-is sale: When you sell your car as-is privately, there’s always the remote chance that the new buyer may find additional issues with your vehicle. They may want you to make repairs before they’re willing to buy the car. This isn’t the case if you sell to a dealership, as they have in-house service teams to make necessary repairs before reselling your car. A dealership’s offer tends to include any possible repairs that may have to be made.
  • Faster completion: Selling to a dealership means having an offer in a matter of days, if not the same day. The dealer will have their assessor look the vehicle over, take it for a test drive, and then make an offer. If you’re ready to sell, you can offload your vehicle the same day. And even better, you’ll get paid immediately.
  • A good market offer: While it’s still essential to check the offer against sites such as Kelley Blue Book, dealerships tend to offer a fair market price. Private sales may allow you to sell the car for a higher price, but there may also be far more hassles.
  • Tax advantages: If you buy your next car from the dealership you sell your car to, you may save on the sales tax. This is because the sales tax is only calculated on the difference between the prices. For instance, if you sell your car for $5,000 and you buy another from the same dealership for $15,000, you only pay sales tax on the difference, which is $10,000. This may differ from state to state, but you’re still likely to make a saving.
  • A safer transaction: There’s a lot of risk when you’re selling a car privately. For instance, the buyer might be a scammer, which could leave you out of pocket. You need to be 100% certain the money is in your account before handing over the keys and title to the buyer.

You Can Buy From Us Too

Keep an eye out for some special choices that come in from time to time, whether it’s some good old American muscle or top-spec vehicles with all the bells and whistles.

Benefits of Buying Used

Our used fleet is in high demand and it’s easy to see why. Here are some reasons to consider buying used for your next car and for choosing to purchase through Stan McNabb Chevrolet:

  • There’s less depreciation: The minute a new car drives off the showroom floor, it starts depreciating in value. The biggest chunk happens in the first year, with significant reductions in the second and third years. After the first three years, the depreciation stabilizes a little. When you’re buying a used car that’s older than a year, you lose far less to depreciation.
  • It’s more cost-effective: You wouldn’t pay the same price for a used car as you would for a new one. However, you might end up with more features if you happen to buy a full-house model. Insurance costs also tend to be lower with a used car as the value isn’t as high, which makes it more cost-effective for insurance companies to replace. Also, you can buy a decent car in the under $10,000 range, which is hard to do with a new car.
  • You can get better warranties: When you buy from our dealership, there’s a good chance of getting an extended warranty. This reduces some of the risks associated with buying a used car.

Benefits of Buying a Used Car Through Our Dealership

There are plenty of great used cars out there, but buying from our dealership adds a few extra layers of security and simplicity. Here’s how:

  • You get a checked and certified vehicle: Some dealerships have a certification process that ensures used cars meet certain minimum criteria. This process often involves a thorough mechanical and interior inspection. With Stan McNabb Chevrolet, your pre-owned benefits include an extended powertrain, bumper-to-bumper limited warranty, and a 172-point vehicle inspection and reconditioning process.
  • You get a wider selection: Whether you already know the make and model or still need to look around, we have a wide selection of stock to choose from. This can significantly reduce the time it takes to select a car, as you’re more likely to find what you’re looking for without shopping around.
  • You can trade in your old car: If you’re buying your next car through the same dealership that you sold your existing car to, they might be open to a good trade-in deal.
  • You can enjoy a simplified process: Our dealership takes care of most of the paperwork, such as the title change and registration, meaning you have less to worry about.
  • You can get on-site finance: At Stan McNabb Chevrolet, we can help you with the financing of your car, whether new or used. Our finance team knows a competitive finance package can make all the difference. We offer a leasing and financing solution to suit different lifestyles and price ranges.
